Roscommon Race 8

Roscommon Livestock Mart (Pro/Am) Flat Race

Prize Money: $18,195

LINFORD (1) looked a decent recruit for his top stable when making a successful start by 10L at Killarney a month ago over 3400m. Can secure back-to-back wins. TELL THE BOYS (8) improved steadily across three attempts culminating in a 14L victory at Listowel only nine days ago. Very dangerous if allowed rope on the front end. Rates a major threat to the main selection. SKYLAB (7) is a likely chance on paper and a stablemate to the likely favourite. Keep an eye out for a positive market move. COOLNAGRATTAN (3) showed something to work on when 8L fourth at Punchestown first up. Holds place potential.

At debut, 3rd of 13 at Killarney on May 9 over 3419m, 18 len behind Linford with 71kg at $23. Should come on following that outing and looks a solid top three chance again.

Was as a despised roughie at debut, 10th of 13 at Killarney on May 9 over 3419m, 80 len behind Linford with 71kg at $101. Don't think he will trouble this field.

Racing well recently. Most recently favourite; scored a big 14 len win at Listowel May 30 over 3319m defeating Vadique carrying 69kg at $1.90. The run before that 2nd of 11 at Cork on May 10 over 3319m, 2.25 len behind Aine with 69kg at $5. Likely to feature.
